Bryan Fredrick Jennings v. State of Florida & Bryan Fredrick Jennings v. State of Florida & Bryan Fredrick Jennings…

Summary

The court affirmed the summary denial of Jennings’s fifth successive postconviction motion, denied his motion to vacate or stay the death warrant, and denied habeas relief. It held that his clemency challenge was untimely, procedurally barred, and meritless; that the gap in state postconviction representation did not violate due process or create a right to continuous or effective collateral counsel; and that his constitutional challenges to Florida’s capital-sentencing and clemency systems failed. No separate opinions were filed.
